Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold, and let $G$ be a compact simple Lie group with bi-invariant metric that is not $\operatorname{Sp}(n)$ for $n \geq 8$, $E_{8}$, $F_{4}$, or $G_{2}$. We show that the singular set of any stable…

We say that a PDE in a Riemannian manifold $M$ is geometric if,$\ $whenever $u$ is a solution of the PDE on a domain $\Omega$ of $M$, the composition $u_{\phi}:=u\circ\phi$ is also solution on $\phi^{-1}\left( \Omega\right) $, for any…

A smooth, compact 4-manifold with a Riemannian metric and b^(2+) > 0 has a non-trivial, closed, self-dual 2-form. If the metric is generic, then the zero set of this form is a disjoint union of circles. On the complement of this zero set,…
